My 22-year-old mare Skippy was leased out to Wisconsin for seven months, and when she came back home to Indiana, I was alarmed to discover she wasn't drinking much. In fact, her water consumption wasn’t more than a half gallon of water a day—far below the amount she needed.
I tried her usual electrolyte, hoping it would encourage her to drink, but it didn’t. Skippy’s lack of interest in water persisted, and I began to worry about the long-term effects of dehydration.
I knew about Redmond products, and had been using Redmond Rock for quite a while. I love Redmond Rock as a mineral salt and hydration trigger. So instead of searching out a new company when I needed an electrolyte to get Skippy drinking again, I went with the one I already knew had great products.
Redmond Rein Water worked! I noticed my horse drinking within the first 12 hours of offering it. I set out two buckets of water over night: a fresh-water bucket and another with Rein Water. The bucket of Rein Water was the only one she drank from.
Now Skippy is drinking a normal amount and is filling out again. I’m grateful I no longer have to worry about if or how much water my mare is drinking.
